fo all fr0/icm 'it may concern Be it known that I, AUGUSTE BRUNETTE, a subject of the King of Great Britain, residingl at Montreal, in the Province of Quebec, Canada, have invented certain-new. and useful Improvements in or Relating," to Burners for Petroleum and other Hydrocarbons; and I do hereby declarethat the followingisa full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same.

The invention to behereinafter described relates to burners for petroleum or other hydrocarbons.

` ,In order to more'clearly disclose the construction, operation, and use of the invenf tion, reference should be had to the accompanying drawings forming part of the present application. 1

Throughout the several figures of the drawings like reference characters designate the same parts.

In the drawings: Figure l is a side elevation o'f the invention; Fig. 2 is a top plan view; and Fig'. 3 is a central, vertical, longitudinal, cross section.

The main objects of the invention are to provide a simple, eiiicient, durable, economicaL, and compact hydrocarbon burner in which the vaporized fuel will be' continually maintained at an increasingly high temperature from the time that itenters the l'eed pipe until it is ignited in'the burner. Such an arrangement vvnot only gives a reduced cost of production for the burner, but a maximum efficiency, result-ing in a very `great. reduction in the quantity of fuel used for any given purpose.

Referring;r to the drawings in detail. the whole device, complete, is made as a single The main part of this casting is a centrally arranged frusto-couical combustion tubeor burner body 1, -the base of which is partly closed by an inwardly extending annular plate 3 from the center openin gr of which extends a short gas receiving; inlet tube 4. 'lhe-Wall of the tube l is provided with a plurality of perforations 5 for inlet of air.

Extending longitudinally alongl one side of the tube l is a fcedpipe 6 provided with a suitable opening 7 to give access for clean- Diametrically opposite the feed pipe 6 is arranged the upper section of the jet tube 8, also provided ,with a suitable Specication of Letters Patent.

opening 9 to' permit access for cleaning out.

The upper end of the feed tube 6 is connected to the upper section of t-he jet tube 8 by means of downwardly directed oblique conduits 10 formed integrally with the outer wail of the conical tube 1 and extendin;

rien..

In operation, the hydrocarbon willv be supplied to the feed pipe 6 in any usual manner; the feed pipe, being an integral part of the conical tube l and extendinglengthwise thereof, will be highly heated by the flame within' the conical tube; this heat- .ed fuel will then pass obliquely downward through the conduits 10 which also form an integral part of the conical tube and extend thereabout. being also highly heated thereby; and from the lower ends of these conduits the fuel will pass into the upper section 8 ot' the jet tube which is also integral with. extends lengthwise of, and is highly heated by. the conical tube 1. This very highly heated hydrocarbon finally reaches the jct tip 13 from which it issues'as a fine jet or spray of vaporized hydrocarbon. Pas-sin;r up through the inlet tube 4l and inito the interior of the conical combustion tube 1,-it mixes with air flowing'in through the small air inlet perforations 5 and becomes ignited, the ignited mixture giving" an in- The upwardly dlrected llame by Letters Patent is: y

1. A device of the character described comprising. a combustion tube, a feed pipe extending longitudinally along one side of what T claim as new and desire to. secure` the outer wall thereof, a burner tube section extending longitudinally along the op posite side of the outer wall thereof, and eonduits extending diagjlfonallyl downwardly about the outer wall of Said Combustion tube and communicating at their opposite ends with Said feed tube and Said burnel` tube respectively.

2. A device ot' the character described comprising a single casting consisting of, a combustion tube,` a feed pipe extending longitudinally along one side of the outer wall thereof, :L burner tube sect-ion extending longitudinally along the opposite side of the outer wall thereof, and conduits extending diagonally downwardly about the out-er wall of said combustion tube and communicating 1:, at their opposite ends with said feed tube and Said burner tuberespeetively.

In witness whereof I have hereunto Setrny lmndin the presence oit twovwitneSses.
